Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0030466A1] The present invention is a method of increasing the flavor release of chewing gum using an alginate material, as well as the chewing gum containing the alginate material and having increased flavor release. The increase in flavor release is obtained by incorporating the alginate material in a powder form (without having been used as a coating material) directly into the chewing gum composition. The alginate material is selected from the group consisting of sodium alginate, carrageenan from red seaweed, propylene glycol alginate, sodium calcium alginate, ammonium alginate, calcium alginate and mixtures thereof.
